I just want to find the fuse to begin with. If nothing else I can bypass it
and restore the original hard disk, since I know that was within spec. The
850 HMM implies it's a SCSI circuit breaker, but if it is on the 800 as well,
it certainly is not resetting automatically. Until that's done it won't boot
from *any* SCSI device.

I found a couple likely suspects, but they were closed and conducting power,
so I don't think they're the cause.

Actually, part of my reason for joining was this mythical loadddx I hear
mentioned that can get 4.2.1 to run on the local graphical console. If
anyone knows where this is lurking, I'd sure appreciate it.
